Can you add the To: and Cc: headers to the list of headers that eventually end up in the 'Downloadable version' of the archives linked below. Along with the already included Messsage-ID, In-Reply-To, and References... that should make those versions more fully threadable, sortable and searchable by MUA's and provide more understandable participant context. Thanks. https://cpunks.org/pipermail/cypherpunks/

I've rebuilt the archives, adding the To: and Cc: headers and (finally!) disabling the rudimentary obscuring of email addresses that had previously been enabled. I was surprised to learn that (at least in the version I'm running) Mailman has no options for retaining extra headers in the text archives. Fortunately, adding it wasn't too annoying. Please let me know if I've unwittingly broken anything, and thank you, grarpamp, for suggesting the various improvements to the archive. -=rsw

I briefly diffed the diffed one mbox month from the old and new and didn't see anything but don't take my word. I did notice better preservation of encoded chars when viewing the new under UTF-8, so that's good. One ongoing processing issue seems to be we send less and greater than chars, various quoting, etc in From:/To:/Cc: ...

Another would be to keep the attachments in the downloadable mbox text/gz versions. For similar reasons, and it would help support efficient mirroring. And would preserve the authors attached gpg signatures over their messages. Otherwise some various messages appear when read by MUA's (probably all findable by egrep '^URL: <')... "

Well, there's one really straightforward way of addressing these requests: the archive page now links to a gzipped mbox file with all messages in original format. Enjoy! -=rsw

That works too. If someday the file gets big, or costly to zip, it could be monthlied / update interval only daily. Thanks.

In truth, the .gz files are only regenerated every few hours via cron; the HTML archives are updated approximately in sync with mail arrival. -=rsw
